Machine Learning and Hyperparameters Algorithms for Identifying Groundwater Aflaj Potential Mapping in Semi-Arid Ecosystems Using LiDAR, Sentinel-2, GIS Data, and Analysis

Aflaj (plural of falaj) are tunnels or trenches built to deliver groundwater from its source to the point of consumption. Support vector machine (SVM) and extreme gradient boosting (XGB) machine learning models were used to predict groundwater aflaj potential in the Nizwa watershed in the Sultanate...
